In Sumerian and Akkadian mythology, Pazuzu was the king of the demons of wind, and son of the god Hanbi. For the Sumerians he also represented the southwestern wind, the bearer of storms.
Pazuzu is often depicted with the body of a man but with the head of a lion or dog, talons instead of feet, two pairs of wings, the tail of a scorpion and a serpentine penis. He is also depicted with the right hand upward, and the left hand downward; the position of the hands means life and death, or creation and destruction.
Pazuzu is the demon of the South-west wind that was known for bringing droughts and famine during dry seasons, and locusts during rainy seasons. Pazuzu was invoked in amulets aimed at fighting against the powers of the malicious goddess Lamashtu, who was believed to cause harm to mother and child during childbirth. Pazuzu is also a demon who protected humans against plague and evil forces.

A person who dwells on thoughts about death or the dead excessively. Their obsession is beyond simple morbid curiosity, to the point that it's an illness.
Necromaniacs have a preoccupation with corpses and are often also necrophiliacs.

He's so grody, he just came up to me and asked if he could sniff my panties... I just about puked from the stench of his breath.

The Big D is really not very big at all!
We were travelling in the car and I fell asleep for a moment ...and when I woke up I realised I'd completely missed The Big D!
